Course recommendations
The system is very interesting as it is different from the Spansh one, in terms of assesments and exam structure. It is really interesting going through both.

If you ever decide to go to DCU join the some of the societies and clubs so life will be easier as you will meet loads of people that will help you anytime.
Try to travel as much as you can, it is worth it.
You will not find many problems in finding any type of advice or help.
